Cancel culture is fine as long as the majority is right. But gay people were once a victim of cancel culture.

Even Churches use Facebook. It’s not going to be easy.

I remember it filling groups with non-text posts which could not be read by Usenet clients, among other things.

I’m not on Facebook but I know people who are, and they are just ordinary people who made a poor choice and didn’t read the terms and conditions. It’s all those people who you are excluding, not just Facebook employees.

I should think there are many people who think Google Groups is Usenet, and they have to register with google to post on there. Recently I think they have removed the option to view the source of an article.

Suspending them before they have actually done anything wrong is a bit like a pre-crime.

Remember what Google Groups did to Usenet? We should be wary.

Usenet? It’s is still there, despite google’s attempts to absorb it.
